On this site ppl disagreed with Gwen using that word I know I did. I don't agree with any non black person saying it. Never have never will.
QT is a director , the n word is in novels written about the period by white authors also. I gave them a pass too?

saying nig9er 100+ times in a movie set in the 1800 vs a black man killing all the crackas
*scratches chin and ponders
Everyone in this thread said that they have a problem with QT using the n word outside the confines of a film so who is giving him a black card? If you see them point em' out.

Who said he coming here to post his opinion? Some me the post Why are you so intimidated about me dropping links for people to check out on their own time? Are you afraid of what you might read? Like I said, I just came across his blog just now I like what i've read so far, others might also. Might not. But it's really not that serious, it's your decision to click or not You're really creeping me out being so pressed over me dropping links, it's weird

Do you care about anyone else's opinion?

What does it mean to give someone a pass?
All of the above mentioned people got a ton of criticism from black people. On BHM and around the world. Or is it because a few black celebs are cool with them, then every black person in America is giving them a pass?

It's not that serious. You don't really care. You've said all you have to say. No one cares about your opinion. It's all harmless fun. lol whatever you say.

Discussion fails when 1. Folks speak more than they listen 2. Become defensive 3. Insults another persons intelligence because opinions differ
This is why these threads dont ever go no where positive

What's your definition of "positive"?
I believe this thread is positive despite the fact that we're not all arguing for the same point Btw.. what have I said that's insulting (assuming you were referring to me)? Be specific
Disagreeing with your opinion does not make one "insulting"

The "Black pass" comment is tongue-in-cheek because, obviously, it doesn't exist, literally lol However, you'd be hard press to find a Black person who doesn't think that the Black collective, at times, gives leeway to some non-Black persons to do and say things we might normally find offensive because they are generally liked by the Black populace For example, Nas and 'em sticking up for Gwenyth Paltrow So while it doesn't really exist b/c Black people are not monolith and often have disagreements as to who can get away with what, there are people within the Black populace that extend certain privileges and liberties to non-Black people in other words... i was joking to make a point

Alias was in here spitting that HOT FIYAH.
That sh*t irks the hell out of me to see Brothas putting the cape on for that hipster cracker.
His ass just wanted another excuse to use the word "ni99er" in a film. And a movie set in the 1800s was the perfect cover.

I can't believe I'm agreeing with you but that's exactly my
problem. It's a f*cking ruse and nobody is willing to call him out for
it. You know many actors will go on record (even if it isn't true) and
say they don't feel comfortable using the word. QT doesn't even
apologize for it. He revels in it. I find that disgusting. And then at
the same time underhandedly insults the very people he's marketing. He
doesn't think there is anything wrong with selling dolls of slaves but
he thinks selling slaves are wrong? Can anyone see the underlying
message here? I didn't know blacks were this frigging gullible after all
they know about history. Did he sell Inglorious Bastard dolls of murdered Jewish people? No he did not. Someone
needs to repost the Black History thread to remind folk they indeed can
be prideful and don't need QT fighting our battles with his off colored
lenses.
